Judge William Adams Suspended
Judge William Adams Suspended While State Commission Investigates Abuse Video
According to an order signed Tuesday by the clerk of the state’s highest court, Aransas County court-at-law Judge William Adams is suspended immediately with pay pending the outcome of the inquiry started by the State Commission on Judicial Conduct earlier this month.
The order makes clear that while Adams agreed to the commission’s recommended temporary suspension and waived the hearing and notice requirements, he does not admit “guilt, fault or wrongdoing” regarding the allegations. His attorney did not immediately return a call seeking comment.
Adams’ now 23-year-old daughter Hillary Adams uploaded the 2004 video of her father beating her repeatedly with a belt.

Judges are crooked today. How many children are stolen from their families for no reason by sadistic, cruel, and evil people just like this man. I can tell you about my story of horrific abuses in CPS LA CA while EVERYONE knew including the judges because we told them. How many more of these incidents have to happen before we stand up for these kids??? I am proud this story received response but the judicial child protection corruption program is gone so far out of control, you can lose your child for nearly no reason at all and look what kind of judges are running the courts…. Go to my FB page and blog and I have thousands of stories to tell….Look up Nancy Shaefer, A US GA congress woman who was murdered last year bringing this truth to light. MURDERED I SAID. These pigs abuse and RAPE children EVERYDAY!!!!! This is just the tip of the iceberg….keep digging and speaking out and please, please, please, fight back!!!!!
He should be whipped by someone who is twice as big with a belt that is half as wide.
I volunteer with a domestic violence shelter and watched the video of Adams and his wife taking turns terrorizing and then whipping the daughter on the back, butt, thighs and legs, again and again and again and again and again.
He will never be reinstated. To this day he feels his behavior was justified. What gets me is that he beat this young girl because she was downloading music from Napster, which we all know was later found to be illegal. Yet at the time, everyone was taking advantage of ‘free’ music. This man is depraved and a few years in jail wouldn’t hurt to show him of his criminal behavior vs. his daughters holds no contest.
Suspended with pay? That’s a vacation.
Pay pending.
Not pay pending. The Blogger left out the comma. “suspended immediately with pay pending [sic] the outcome of the inquiry started by the State Commission on Judicial Conduct earlier this month.”
The suspension is with pay. The suspension is pending the outcome of the inquiry, which means that the Comish will decide whether or not to let him back on the bench. His pay during the suspension will not be affected by the decision, one way or the other. I understand how you might think that the pay itself is pending the inquiry, but that’s because Huffpost lets Bloggers write articles without editing for spelling, punctuation, or content.
THe part that made me the sickest was the childs mother telling her to Take It Like A Woman – how horrible for a emale child to be told that women should be beaten .. This girls mother should be beaten with a belt and see if she could take it like a woman
The sad part is, I would assume that the mother WAS beaten…maybe by her husband, maybe by her father or both. I can think of no other reason that she would have used that exact phrasing unless she considers it part of being a woman.
I wouldn’t be surprised if the wife did get beaten, by either her sicko judge husband or someone else from her past, making her feel like a beating was a normal course of behavior. This does not in any way excuse her behavior however. What has to be realized is that someone has to stand up, be brave and break this vicious cycle of behavior. It happened in the Catholic church and at Penn State. One has to make up one’s mind that when you see something wrong, you have to stand up, say something, do something. Break the cycle.
The really and scary part of all this is – He is a Family court Judge and mediator – if he thinks it is okay to beat children what kind of counseling is he giving troubled families
Too bad the judge’s heart isn’t as big as his ego
?DID THEY USE A BELT ON HIM FIRST?
I’d like to go a couple of rounds with Judge Adams myself. I would do my best to make him cry like a girl.
Hey! I’m a girl; and I want to make him cry like a boy.
He will be quietly reinstated after this all blows over, after all I cant seem to find the statue for beating a child with MS in that states penal law.
ROLE MODEL…..and he is a JUDGE….REALLY???????????????????????????????
This is the kind of ROLE MODEL that all Judicial Systems need in the USA…..NOT!!!!!!!!!
Suspended with pay…..OMG…..he should have been terminated…..to say the very least…..does not matter what he admits to or not….as the video TELLS THE STORY….RIGHT BY ITSELF….unless, of course, you are BLIND…...
this judge and father showed poor parenting and poor judgement in his own personal life and raising of his daughter? as stated by others this was not a punsihment, or a spanking, (which would be fine under the correct situation) but this was a beating of a child under this mans care? at the very least this video proves to anyone watching that this man is guilty of child endangerment, or at the very least the hint of impropriety in this case? having even the hint of being a child abuser, he is not fit to sit in judgement of others in the community? to sit in judgement of others your personal life must be spotless of any impropriety, or lack of moral leadership and this mans is in serious question!!
On one of Dr. Phil’s show last week, he had this young lady and her mother on for a very discriptive and telling segment. What is not seen here is the father handing the belt to the mother who in turn, also hit the girl but not repeatedly or to the the extent the father did. The parents are now divorced, The mother claimed she was frightened of her husband and was afraid not to do what he said (my words, not her verbatim).
This young lady has a very mild case of cerebral palsy and to the observant eye, you would not notice anything at all. She said she still wants to have a relationship with her father (I can’t imagine why???).
Frankly, in my eyes, the mother is as guilty as the father. She could have gone to authorities to report him although she said that because of his position as a a judge, no one would believe her. I’m not buying it. How could a mother stand there and watch her daughter be abused, time after time.
Very sad, very sad. It will be interesting to see how this pans out. Once again — Texas makes the news!
It is about time he paid some consequences for his actions but not severe enough consequences.
oh my my, justice see’s justice 🙂
No justice here–he’s home with pay. The daughter is seven years older and likely traumatized for life.
Pillar of the community my hind foot.
The anti-corporal discipline rebels out there should realize that this daughter only posted the video now because Daddy withdrew some of his financial blessings presently. GREED is the root of all evil. The ‘girl’ that you are all making out to be such a victim is his daughter. While we may not always agree with someone’s parenting, unless we are speaking of extremely Satanic violations (incest, Satanic Ritual Abuse, prostitution, etc.) it is not another’s business to interfere with one’s parenting to this extent. Sure, everyone has the right to comment, but when you side with the STATE against parental rights you run into Satan’s territory.
